I have a project at work where we need to set up various screens around the workshop. Might be about 5 screens. The workshop is about 60m x 40m.
The shop manager updates a delivery schedule at various times during the day using Excel and wants to display this info on each screen. So a live image is needed that refreshes. Much the same as say, an airport departures screen.
There are a few options I have thought about. Each have their own problems.
1. Install a small laptop next to each screen, Using some sort of streaming software.
cons:
Expensive to setup
2. Using a HDMI splitter along with HDMI-Cat5e converters.
cons:
manager will need two monitors and extend his display to all the screens
might forget to keen Excel open on correct info
A lot of cabling
governed by shorter distances (60m for 480p)
Im wondering if there any guys in here who could think of a solution or even a company to do the works.
